If you know your passports are already linked (the link lasts for the life of the foreign passport, even if you get a new AUS passport the links are automatically carried over), never hand over both passports, only the one you will enter the destination with. The fact you had to use the AUS...

The correct process is you use the passport you checked in with in the smartgate, so that means you use the USA passport in the smartgate, not the AUS passport.

This list is all the carriers that QF codeshares on, hence why a variety of non oneworld carriers appear.

Something is not adding up here... SQ is probably the only major carrier who does very few schedule changes and certainly cancelling flights altogether is not something that SQ does often. So why were the flights cancelled?

Yes you can.

In that case, don't check in online at all. At MAD, show them both passports. They will need to swipe the USA passport which will give you a boarding pass to DFW, then at DFW give QF the AUS passport to get the DFW-MEL boarding pass.

QF53/54 is filed seasonally. It is filed in 2025 in some months.

Who is the carrier for MAD-DFW?

I suspect QF may also cut the QF53/54 BNE service too then... which I believe was added to maintain this capacity requirement.

It's almost comical that the stay earned more QFF points than Accor points...

This has been ongoing for a while now across a number of carriers... the ones that I'm aware of are QF, AC, SQ, QR ... possibly others. Essentially they pinch the booking reference/pax name and then go and change the FF number to a newly created FF account in the pax's name, then they steal...

For CGK/NYC or CGK/PHL, yes, 1280 TPs at 5200 AUD is the maximum TPs possible. If you're purely after TPs, the KUL/LAX fare is better value where the maximum is 1440 TPs for about 5500 AUD.

This AA fare, along with the KUL/LAX fare, never goes on sale. Neither fare has gone on sale at all in the past 12 months. Any difference in pricing will purely be differences in availability. The CGK/NYC or CGK/PHL R class version is about 4400 AUD currently, and the C class version which is...

It doesn't include Mexico... it's really only NYC and PHL that are the best value. You can rack up a string of SCs on the way there though by using up the domestics allowance... you can even fit in up to 2 transcons in each "direction".

What is your intended itinerary? You're allowed 3 domestic segments in each direction for a total of 6, plus the 4 QR segments.

The ticket should end up as 30kg on both flights.

Just make sure they absolutely can select seats on a codeshare for you - a lot of agents don't know how to!

EK moved from N to S class a few years ago for Y awards. Don't believe everything you see on the internet...

All the VA codeshares operated by the carriers are a bit of a pain point with regards to seat selection via contact centres or online. If booking the VA codeshare is quite important... it's probably best to go to a travel agent that is able to do the seat selections. @PERLHR sent me their NH...

Anything < 24 hours is fine for SQ to SQ transfers at SIN for baggage through check, even if that transfer is overnight. I did hear that SQ will accept through-check baggage for up to 48 hour transits in SIN from SQ to SQ but I have not seen this in action to date in a live scenario personally...
